TERN RAILWAY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—Your enlightened and impartial advocacy of those "high roads of civilization"—railways, prompts me to solicit the insertion in your widely circulated Journal of a few remarks, in reply to a malevolent attack on the Great Western Railway made in the Railway Times of the 16th inst. What may be the motives or what the interest of the writer in tha Railway Times to assail with the grossest precipitancy and misrepre sentation this important undertaking, and is eminent engineer, may not be generally known ; but when an anonymous scribbler endeavours, by confident but most unfounded assertions, to depreciate the character and property of others, no one but a dolt will cr edit his professions of "a fearless advocacy of the public interest," and his freedom " from sinister influences," As far as the Directors of this Company and the undertaking itself are concerned, I might be quite content to leave t) floe the refutation of the calumnies referred to; but when such a scandaksus abuse of the power of the Press may be productive of some loss or roin to Share. holders who credit its misrepresentatio ns , and have no mca.ms of know ing the real facts of the case, it becom es a d uty to expose the .trick, and to save the bona fide Proprietors from being the victims of reckt'ess 51)o -culators.

The abatement of premium for the vear 1838, on Policies of five years' standing, under the first of the above plans, was 511. 12s. 3d. per cent. The future annual abatement must vary according to the success of this branch of the Corporation's business. In the Fire Department, Assurances are effected at the lowest rates.

THE DUBLIN MONITOR, A Political, Commercial, and Literary Journal, TO BE PUBLISHED TWICE A WEEK. THE FIRST NUMBER WILL APPEAR IN THE ENSUING MONTH. Price Gd. It has long been a matter of surprise, as well as a source of re gret to the genuine Patriot and Philanthropist, that while the Irish Metropolis abounds in Journals, the great majority of which are the violent and indiscriminate organs of some party •r faction in the State, yet in . all their ranks there can scarcely be found one solitary Paper that with justice merits the proud distinction of beinnhe fearless and impartial advocate of the rights and interests of the bulk of the people. The Conductors of the MONITOR, therefore, propose that it shall supply this desideratum so essential to the well-being of so ciety in Ireland, and that its columns shall ever be devoted to the advocacy of measures not men, in the diffusion of right principles as opposed to schemes of individual ambition and personal aggran dizement. The Politician, whatever be his opinions, who has an honest faith in the supposed righteousness of his cause, will net often find reason to quarrel with the MONITOR. If obliged to differ it will endeavour to prove, by facts and arguments, that he and his party are in the wrong. The present time, when the good and rational of all parties seem inclined to surrender a portion of their extreme opinions, and to meet half-way, for the purpose of advancing the happiness of man kind and promoting the prosperity of the country, appears to be extremely propitious for the establishment of such a journal as the MONITOR. Its object will be to extend and consolidate such a union by the dissemination of sound political opinions, promulgated in a spirit of candour. After this exposition of our political views, we presume that a very brief explanation of the course which we intend to steer will be deemed sufficient. We are the advocates of progressive Reform in all our Institutions, and will, therefore, struggle to obtain for every class of our fellow-countrymen all those privileges which they are fairly entitled to enjoy. No public man will be lauded or censured by us unless his conduct is found to justify it, and we will be ready to judge of every Administration, not by the title it as sumes, or the declarations of liberality it makes, but by the policy which it pursues. We shall exert ourselves to dcvelope the resources of this impor tant country, and shall take frequent opportunities of satisfying our English neighbours that Irishmen, if not so immaculate as many would have us suppose, are certainly not so bad as factious prints are in the habit of describing them. The Commercial, Manufacturing, and Agricultural interests will receive the utmost attention, and be confided to the hands of Gentle men of undouited talent and experience. The Monetry system, too, will be an object of special conside ration, with the view of removing erroneous notions, founded in ig norance, and to assist hi the downfall of a ruinous monopoly, benefi cial to the few, but manifestly unjust and injurious to the prosperity of the country. In matters connected with the Clerical, Legal, Military, and Medical Professions, the earliest and most copious intelligence will he always found in the MONITOR. The Literary and Musical Criticisms and Sporting Information will be intrusted to persons eminently qualified to execute the task with ability. In conclusion, the Conductors of the AIONITOIt beg to state that it will be printed with a beautiful type, upon a large-sized and ele gant paper ; and the very circumstance of its being the only journal published in Dublin twice a-week must render it highly acceptable to a number of persons in the country, who find the weekly newspaper unable to keep pace with the march of events, and the daily, or three-daily, too expensive, as well as too serious a tax upon their leisure. Contributors will always be welcome, and their offerings will be treated with a considerate regard, and it may be as well to mention that those earliest in the field will have hereafter the strongest claims upon our space and good wishes. Our advertising friends will find the columns of the MONITOR. an advantageous medium for communicating with the public.

Ask for Wese;s' Jesuits' Drops. The writer in the Railway Times pompously sets down as " a ma,.ter of history" that the construction of the Great Western Line is a f.iihn..e, and declares, ex-cathedra, that " the experience of a couple of weelts (!) has sufficed to demolish its reputation utterly and for ever." Her tells us, also, that this same fortnight's experience has established, that " the Great Western Railway—though nothing better than most other railways, and not half so good as some as cost a great deal more to construct, and will cost a great dent more to work than any of them." And then he most modestly concludes that an "estimate of the capital thrown away on Mr. Brunet's abortive whimsies at 10,0001. per miles, would certainly be quite withri limits, but to calculate how much loss and damage must arise from then: in the working of the undertaking would be an affair of tens of thousands, These extracts suffice to show the animus and object of the wri,'er clearly enough. It shall by my object briefly to contrast them with fiscts ascertained on the best authority. The mode of construction adopted by Mr. Brunel on the Great Western line is to lay the rails on longitudinal bearers of Kyanized timber, connected by transverse pieces across the whole width of the road, the transoms themselves being firmly attached to piles driven at certain intervals many feet deep into the ground. By these means a sufficient resistance is obtained to the upward strain of the timbers when ballast is driven under them, which is technically called packing. The object of the packing is to give every part of the longitumnal ber a firm and uniform bearing upen the earth itself, quite independent of the support it receives from the transoms and piles. Now it must be obvious that no care or attention will be able to render this packing quite true and solid in the first instance. When the enormous weight of the:locomotive comes to traverse the rail all the weak points of support, arc discovered, and in passing over these some undulation occurs which occasions the jolt, or uneasiness complained of. That this, however, is greater on the Great Western Line than on other Railways, is a mere reckless assertion. I have met with many persons, well acquainted with Railways, who consider the Great Weston even in its present state as much steadier, and at least as easy as any other line, and my own experience strongly confirms this. But if some disappointment is felt that a greater degree of smoothness has not been attained, let it be observed that, from the very nature of the construe. tion, the earliest trials must be the least satisfactory; that as the pack ing is renewed and consolidated, the timbers will gain in every part a solid bearing; and that to judge of the plan by " the experience of a couple of weeks," with the Solon of the Railway Times, is much on a par with the wisdom that reckons one swallow to make a summer r As to the cost of constructing the Great Western Railway, the writer in the Railway Times must be aware that he knows next to nothing, or if he have any authentic information on this point, he must be one, frot. - 1 hss facility of blinking the truth, with whom honest men had better not keep company. It is the merest guess-work on his part, though he• writes with all the arrogance of "absolute wisdom," to estimate how much " Mr. Brunel's abortive whimsies" have cost. Those who have the best means of knowing the truth of the case are well satisfied that tho cost per mile of the Great Western Railway, with all the improvements introduced in it, will not equal that of several other most successful lines ; and, as regards the expense of working the line, it is enough to say that such experience as has yet been obtained is decidedly in favour of "Mr. Brunel's whimsies," whilst any man whose judgment was not blinded by self-interest, or " something worse," must laugh at the attempt the anticipate the future " working of the undertaking" from a fortnight's experience. I may pass over this writer's affected commiseration of "the de plorable results" which he attributes to " the gross ignorance and pre- sumption at the bottom of them." No one, of course, can doubt the sincerity of his wish to " have seen this ignorance and presumption crowned (by some good luck !) with laurels," and his own " predie tions utterly falsified." lam happy to say that there is some probability of his satisfaction being complete, and that this " important and excel lent ramification of the railway system" will not prove " a miserable failure." Within the first eleven days of the opening of the line (on the 4th instant), upwards of 17,000 passengers were conveyed upon it, and the receipts exceeded .c. 1,600/. The average number of passengers per diem is already fully as great as that on the Liverpool and Man chester Railway two years after its opening, and as yet a very inconsi derable portion of the long coach traffic has been transferred to the Rail way. The average time occupied in making the trip from Paddington to Maidenhead, a distance of 23 miles, is less than an hour, including two or three stoppages, and the average speed whilst running is from 28 to 30 miles per hour. An improvement in the state of the road is almost daily experienced, and there can b., no doubt that when the packing becomes consolidated, all ground of complaint will be removed. The traffic upon the line is likely to increase greatly, and the experience of a few months only is wanting, to convince the Shareholders that they are in possession of one of the most valuable working lines in the kingdom- I am, Sir, your obedient servant, June 21, Iti3B.

PORT OF COWES POST-OFFICE ARRANGEMENTS.—The grievance so long justly com_ plainest of by the shipping and commercial interests of there being but one mail a day, and of that arriving so late and leaving so early, is at length removed. The London mail now leaves Southampton at 6 A.M. and should arrive at Cowes at 7.30 am., when the mail for Newport, &c. is immediatly forwarded. The London mail leaves Cowes at half-past six, in the evening; a mail for Bristol and Gloucester leaves Cowes at A.M., and one at 5 P.M. ; one from Ryde arrives at 4 .30 r st., and one leaves for Hyde at 5 e.m., and actually reaches that town before the one which is sent by the old rout (via Newport) seven hours earlier, and what is better, the letters by this route are charged only 2d., while those sent through Newport are charged 4d. It is but 2d. from Cowes to Ityde, and 2d. from Hyde to Portsmouth, but letters from Cowes to Portsmouth are seven-pence, being se t round by Southampton. More reform wanted. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. HAMPTON RACES.-YESTERDAY. With very flimsy pretensions on the score of racing, Hampton, like its predecessors, Ascot and Epsom lays claim to a " Grand Day," which imposing title is accordingly allotted to Thursday, the Royal Plato being reserved as the race whereupon the said title is founded. The name is sufficient for John Bull, and, in spite of weather, mud, or dust, we find the " Grand Day" on Moulsey Hurst. quite as busy an affair as at other places. Such was the case yesterday. The (common and rail) roads were covered in all di rections with a motley good humoured and easily satisfied throng— satisfied only, however, until they reached the course, where a very different feeling was engendered by the impositions practised on all whose carriages were permitted to en ter the enclosure, such enclo sure being the entire race course ; five shillings was charged for every carriage that passed from the road to the Hurst, and once on, a pound more standing near the cords near the weighing stand, and five shillings at the lower part, the space appropriated to them being carried right up to the cord, to the exclusion of the foot people, who at all other places are provided with reasonable ac commodation. If any spiri! - was shown by the " Great Lessee" in contributing a fair portion of his enormous gains towards the amuse ment of those from whom they are exacted, we might have let the matter pass over, but such a niggardly feeling is exhibited in every item of the management that we should be compromising ourselves and the public if we failed to reprobate it in the strongest terms : more than this, we will venture to assert that unless a thorough change is effected the proprietors of race-horses will be very shy in sending them to future meetings. Quitting an ungracious subject, we hasten to acquit ourselves of the remaining part of our duty, by stating that the attendance was very large, but that the course was less crowded than usual, in consequence of a great number having stationed their carriages in the public road rather than submit to the extravagant demands for driving on the course. The , weather, with the exception of one heavy shower, was fine, and the sport so plentiful, that nine-tenths of the spectators (ourselves amongst the number) quitted the ground before it was ov e r. . . • Aniongst the fashloilables pre; - ent were the Duke of Beaufort, Marquis of Waterford, Lords Chesterfield, Suffield, Macdonald, Villiers, W.
